Body Fluids And Circulation
Which would be the heart rate of a person if the
cardiac output is 5L, blood volume in the ventricles
at the end of diastole is 100 mL and at the end of
ventricular systole is 50 mL?
A 50 beats per minute
B 100 beats per minute
C 75 beats per minute
D 125 beats per minute

Explanation: Cardiac output (CO) = heart rate (HR) × stroke volume (SV). SV = end diastolic volume − end systolic volume = 100 mL − 50 mL = 50 mL = 0.05 L. Given CO = 5 L/min, so HR = CO/SV = 5 L/min ÷ 0.05 L = 100 beats per minute. Therefore, option 2 is correct. The other options would require different SV values: 50 bpm would need SV = 0.1 L, 75 bpm would need SV ≈ 0.0667 L, 125 bpm would need SV ≈ 0.04 L. NCERT emphasizes CO = HR × SV in normal heart function.
🧠 Did You Know? Stroke volume depends on preload (EDV), afterload, and contractility. EDV here is the amount of blood in the ventricle at the end of diastole.
💡 NCERT Memory Line: CO = HR × SV, where SV = EDV − ESV; use given CO and EDV/ESV to find HR.
